  • US 5329655 discloses a patient sheet having a top surface and a bottom surface to which a low friction material is stitched. In operation, the low friction material is designed to slide across a mattress whilst a patient rests on the top surface of the patient sheet. This allows turning of a patient or transfer of the patient from one bed to another.
  • the "transfer device" of AU 49606/96 includes both an upper sheet having a padded portion and a moisture absorbing-layer together- with a low friction lower surface, and a lower sheet having a low friction upper surface.

More preferably the undersheet is fixed to a bottom sheet which is wrapped about the sides of the mattress thereby anchoring the undersheet to the mattress. Alternatively the undersheet may be secured to the bed via one or more anchoring straps.
